Grilled Jerk Pork Tenderloin Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Grilled Jerk Pork Tenderloin Recipe). I feel that the apple cider makes this jerk marinade unique, and a bit untraditional. Being from the apple country of Virginia, the apple cider was a natural. For added flavor, add apple or hickory wood chips soaked in water on top of the hot coals. You can begin grilling when the chips start smoking. Grilled pineapple goes well with this as a side dish.
